Episode 28: Alex Salzman of Tour De Force

Episode 28: Alex Salzman of Tour De Force

We are back with a brand new episode and today our special guest is Alex Salzman formerly of the great Westchester County New York band Tour De Force. This band once had a development deal with Geffen Records and a publishing deal with Warner Chappell Publishing, but in our view remains one of the greatest hard rock bands to never have that elusive major label release. Tour De Force wrote over 40 songs during their time and in this episode Tom & Mark take a trip down memory lane with Alex and talk about everything from the band’s early days, their eventual album releases and right up to what Alex has going in his musical career today.

We hope you enjoy this episode and to learn even more about Alex and see what he is doing since his days with Tour De Force, please visit his website at www.alexsalzman.com.
